BDO Malta: Your Partner for MGA Compliance Audits

Compliance Audits are a cornerstone of the Malta Gaming Authority’s (MGA) regulatory oversight, especially at the licence renewal stage. While System Audits and System Reviews also play important roles—System Audits at application or after technical changes, and System Reviews as annual checks for ongoing system integrity—Compliance Audits uniquely focus on day-to-day operational and regulatory adherence throughout the entire licence lifecycle. Licensees must complete these Compliance Audits within 90 days of MGA notification, making preparation essential.
